Kanchanjunga trek

Kanchanjunga is the most inaccessible adventure holiday trekking since Kanchanjunga, the third highest mountain in the world, which lies on the eastern border of Nepal with India, is far removed from any airfield or road-head. It takes at least two weeks’ walk to reach the destination, Kanchanjunga Base Camp. There are two Kanchanjunga base camps-north and south, and a usual trek involves reaching either of them. It is possible to go to both base camps but it takes a much longer time. One way to make the trip to both the base camps would be by going over one of two passes between them, but both are very difficult to cross. This region was made open for trekkers only in 1988 and requires a special permit which are issued only to trekking groups. The trek starts from Basantapur, which is around 20 hours’ road journey from Kathmandu Valley. Or, alternately, one can fly to Taplejung, which shortens the trek by few days.
